We offer a variety of athletic programs (Soccer, Baseball, Football, Cheerleading and Basketball, etc.) designed not only to enhance athletic abilities, but to equip our youth with the proper citizenry skills. Moreover, our programs are designed to offer counseling and guidance which is a necessary factor in good discipline. Our programs are offered to all youth regardless of race or gender between the ages of seven (7) and eighteen (18). The Langley Park Boys and Girls Club provide programs for 300 to 500 youth.
For the past few years, we have run a Christmas Basketball tournament that attracted an average of 112 teams from throughout the area. The tournament begins the second week of December and continues through the first week of January. Additionally, we run a summer sport program for teens between the ages to 15 and 18 that is designed to keep them off of the street between the hours of 7:00pm to midnight. We also have a summer program for the younger youth that involves several other Boys and Girls Clubs from the local area. These programs are designed to keep our youth under close supervision and are staffed mainly by a dedicated group of volunteers, many of which have experience with youth.
The finances that is received for the United Way, as a result of your giving is instrumental, in the successful running of these programs and help provide our youth with uniforms and equipment. Although, we have several fund raisers each year, our programs would probably collapse without contributors like you.
Your tax deductible support is needed more than ever. PLEASE HELP OUR YOUTH. |
